Richard Feynman's Story of Particle Physics

Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 6 Απρ 2015

A
40 minute audio recording, restored with visual aids and diagrams,
given by the legendary physicist and educator Richard Feynman on the
history and development of the search for the fundamental structure of
matter, from atomic physics to elementary particle physics.

I
personally restored this audio and produced the video for anyone with an
interest, or even just a mild curiosity, in the world of particle
physics and what scientific discoveries has happened, and continues to
happen, at particle accelerator facilities such as at Fermilab, SLAC and
of course CERN. This is a good lecture for anyone who wants a
relatively quick but concise lecture from one of the grand masters of
the field of physics.

The story of how humanity's knowledge of
matter, from the Periodic Table to the Standard Model of Particle
Physics, developed is a very interesting one and shows that once we
think we have found simplicity in physics, more complicated and
unexpected phenomena and patterns occur again at a deeper level as
nature does not give up its secrets so easily and never seems to let us
get too complacent in our assumed mastery of a particular field. This
has of course generated more and more discoveries and technological
breakthroughs in their wake, accelerating our knowledge of matter and
energy and increasing our power to manipulate it.
